When the door opened they were standing there just smiling.
- "Hey and welcome Dolores!"
- "Mom, she wants to be called Dol." he gave her angry eyes for such an innocent thing. Her smile slowly faded as he gave that comment on her greeting. Before she even got to say anything I opened my mouth.
- "No, Alex, it's fine." I just smiled back at her. He seemed annoyed at me for just accepting her calling me something only my mom called me. I just wanted to be polite.
- "Anyways, hey to you Alex, we got food cooking inside that will be done soon if you two are hungry."
- "I would love to get some food." I followed them inside of the house while I ignored him. He thought I was acting weird but he acted even more weird now. The house was beautifully decorated with bookshelves and musical instruments, it really felt like a loving home. I noticed a big piano they had that was just stunning. His dad caught me looking at it and approached me when I wasn't expecting it.
- "Do you play any instruments?" his present almost shocked me, I wasn't expecting it.
- "What? Oh, no, I don't really play much besides guitar."
-"You like the piano?" his head tilted as he referred to the piano I stared at.
-"Oh yeah very, it's a beautiful instrument. Wish I could play it. I know Al can play it, I'm jealous." I chuckled.
-"If you want to, I could show you some on the piano." Him offering to teach me like that already made me feel more comfortable around them.
-"Uh yeah sure, that would be great."
-"You do have some time now, Dol." His mom overheard our conversion.
-"You sure you don't need help to set the table or anything, Penny?"
-"Oh no sweetie. Thanks for asking but it's fine, you two can play some until the food gets ready, Alex can help me." She smiled looking at him, probably just happy he visited home again. He on the other hand was so annoyed and frustrated. I wondered what was going on with him. I decided to deal with that later since I just tried to bond with his parents now.
-"You want to learn some now?" He asked while I was looking at Al that seemed annoyed already. I slowly sat down by the piano even though my eyes were looking towards the kitchen.
-"Yeah sure David." He looked confused when I said his name, it started to make me feel so guilty.
-"Did I say something wrong?"
-"No, no not at all. I'm just a bit surprised you referred to me by my name like that."
-"Is Mr Turner better?" I joked.
-"No, just call me David. Have you ever tried playing piano?"
-"Ehh, yeah some. I remembered some notes."
-"Okay, show me what you can." He was standing and observing me as I tried to remember some notes.
-"Fuck I don't remember...OH SHIT i'm sorry I sweared, I mean..." I covered my mouth as if that would help. He just laughed at my attempt at trying to be perfect.
-"Don't worry, I will help you." And then he tried to show me all the notes that I totally forgot about, and we laughed about the small mistakes I made. In the middle of him teaching me I feel two fingers tapping on the shoulder, I slowly turn around.
-"Food's ready babe."
-"We better go eat. Thank you for teaching me some, it was fun." I rose from the piano and the three of us walked to the kitchen.
